The Hermes, appearing as a two-door coupe, is distinguishable by its large body but seemingly small occupant space. The car is evidently modified with its roof chopped down, enhancing the vehicle's hot rod-like appearance. The Hermes is based on a 1949-1951 Mercury Custom, but is unusual in that it has front wheel drive (unheard of in American cars of the period) and it can't be blown up with a gas-tank shot like most cars in GTA San Andreas. The car's performance could be described as average; its acceleration is underwhelming, but it has a moderate top speed. The car is also prone to understeer, owing to its size and small tires. As it only has two doors, the Hermes can only seat two.
